Editorial Reviews

Most of the essays were commissioned for the second edition and did not appear in the first (1986). They examine the connection between candidates' media approaches and the policies that they will likely implement, the role of ideology, electoral mobilization, elite domination, interest groups, the gender gap, and other issues before zeroing in on the 1988 election.
